Demystify:
You could import the P- and U-lists into Excel and spend a bunch of time writing If-Then logic or using pivot tables but that would just pare the list down a little. A little better if you have CAS numbers in your inventory. Two or three days of undergrad chemistry student time should get you a complete job for very little cost by searching manually. That would be my first choice.
I have a list of our chemical inventory (2,150 items) in an Excel file. I want to identify which of these are P-listed and U-listed. Any suggestions on how to go about it efficiently?
Many thanks.
